Modelling floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) is challenging due to the strong coupling
between the aerodynamics of the turbine and the hydrodynamics of the floating platform …

Over the past decade, there has been rapid increase in the offshore wind turbine
installations. The future installations will see a progression from shallow to deep waters. It …

This paper introduces a lumped-mass mooring line model and validates it against scale-
model floating offshore wind turbine test data. The mooring model incorporates axial …

An accurate study of a floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT) system requires
interdisciplinary knowledge about wind turbine aerodynamics, floating platform …

A practical model is developed to investigate the performance of a hybrid system with semi-
submersible floating offshore wind turbines (FOWT) coupled to an array of point-absorbing …

The wind energy industry is moving to offshore installations allowing for larger wind turbines
to be deployed in deep-water regions with higher and steadier wind speeds. Floating …

Compared to onshore wind power, floating offshore wind power is a promising renewable
energy source due to higher wind speeds and larger suitable available areas. However …

Offshore wind energy, as a form of renewable power, has seen rapid development in recent
years. While fixed-bottom wind turbines are typically used in water depths less than 50​ m …

Floating wind turbines have the potential to enable global exploitation of offshore wind
energy, but there is a need to further understand the complex aerodynamic phenomena they …

The present study investigates the feasibility of suspended inter-array cabling between two
floating offshore wind turbines. In these cable configurations, the power cables do not touch …
